Hi.

Recently bought a Samsung 840 Pro SSD.
Connected it through a ASUS U3S6 Expansion card as the ASUS m4a79xtd motherboard only got Sata II /eSata ports. When starting up windows my new disk is not getting deteced in BIOS... Any solutions?
(64x Win7)

Thanks!

Latest version BIOS. auto AHCI. I solved the problem by disconnecting my old hard drive then booting with Windows 7 CD. For some reason the SSD got deteced, and i'm now succesfully installing OS on SSD. Cheers anyway :)
